Use Google Maps to find-out where you are and where you are going January 8 2007
Q: I spend most of my day outside the office visiting clients. I usually print-out on-line maps to find my appointments for the following day. Is there anything available for my mobile phone where I don’t have to do this without investing in a GPS system?
A: Yes – You can acquire a free download from Google - Google Map. It is a combination of Google Earth and Google Mobile into a single handy program for your smart phone.
It can help you:
-Find an address
-Get directions
-See Real-time traffic updates (although in Austin it is a little sketchy)
-Toggle between a Satellite and Map views (I can see my house from here!)
-Find the closes UPS store or closest Vietnameese restaurant using the Business Finder
